Comment on Merge (convert) multiple PDF files into one single PDF – Generate one pdf from many on Linux / Windows and Mac by admin.
If you need to reduce generated PDF file size with GS the common way is with:
gs -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dCompatibilityLevel=1.4 -dPDFSETTINGS=/screen -dNOPAUSE -dQUIET -dBATCH -sOutputFile=output.pdf input.pdf
admin Also Commented
Its also possible to merge PDF files by using simply Ghostscript (useful for older Linux releases and UNIX – Sun OS / Solaris / HP-UX etc.)
gs -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -q -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=merged-file.pdf file1-to-merge.pdf file2-to-merge.pdf file3-to-merge.pdf
There are also other tools to be used to merge multiple PDFs under Linux.
There is pdfunite (part of poppler) Linux package and pdfjam part of pdfpages (on debian there is separate pdfjam package).
Here are some comparison between the (pdfunite, pdfjam and pdftk) in speed, created file-size, support of PDF hyperlinks etc.:

What is rather fun is during the anti-protest organized by Metropolitan Nikolay (with people only from the Plovdiv eparchy just like in the good old times of communism was financed by the unwilling people to go to the event). It was lied that the reason for Nikolay people to protest is because this is a protest in front of the Synod against the accepting of gay marriages (what a lie !!!). Besides that there is a many people from village called Krepost (if not mistaken the village) who were (protestants!) and came to protest in favour of the new anti people legislation (even though not orthodox christians), because they were mislead the protests are against the gays!
Metropolitan Nikolay has publicly asked priests in his eparchy to sign a document they're going to be present on the protests that should support the New Synodal "order". Those who were unwilling to cooperate of course can always be sent by their Metropolitan to a very distant village or even taken away their profession as priests so there was a lot of pressure put on those people.

Christ is Risen Eastern Orthodox Resurrection Paschal Greeting in Different Languages
Hi Stan,
I guess you cannot read the writtings on the icon as it is in cyrillic.
This is not Saint Mary and Saint Peter but Adam and Eve written in cyrillic on top of the icon.
Actually in orthodoxy it is a requirement for the depicted personalities, especially saints to have
written on the names of the saint and have the Halo. If you look closely at the picture you will notice
the two Adam and Eve are missing a Halo. The only person with a Halo in the icon is Saint John the Baptist.
Best Regards

–rwo, –report-warnings-only
This option causes only warning messages to be displayed. This can be useful when rkhunter is run via cron. Other options may
be used to force other items of information to be displayed.
–sk, –skip-keypress
When the –check command option is used, after certain sections of tests, the user will be prompted to press the return key
in order to continue. This option disables that feature, and rkhunter will run until all the tests have completed.
